Hi!

This call to of_irq_find_parent breaks gpiolib-of for SPARC due to the 
fact that the function is undefined when !defined(CONFIG_OF_IRQ) && 
defined(CONFIG_OF).

Defining the empty of_irq_find_parent in include/linux/of_irq.h when 
!defined(CONFIG_OF_IRQ) instead of the current case when 
!defined(CONFIG_OF) would solve the immediate compilation problem.

However, when !defined(CONFIG_OF_IRQ) (i.e. SPARC in this case) the 
whole tree walking will never accomplish anything, so it would be good 
if of_gpiochip_reserve_irq_lines is just an empty dummy or something 
like that when !defined(CONFIG_OF_IRQ).

Cheers,
Andreas Larsson
